The Daily News Transcript has news on Tom Gorman’s successful move to have a non-binding question placed on the November ballot.
Republican candidate Thomas Gorman’s ballot question will ask voters in the 11th Norfolk District whether their state representative, currently Paul McMurtry, D-Dedham, should vote to abolish the county government and transfer its responsibilities to the state.
Gorman had this to say in the article:
“It’s more of a public opinion poll,” said Gorman, who hopes the ballot question will also increase awareness of his campaign. “If it’s overwhelmingly supportive of my position … then we bring it to legislators and say, ‘Look, we want you to vote for this.’ It’s a polite way of citizen legislation.”
